I AIN'T TEASIN'

Franklin thinks maybe I am the boy who cried post. Not at all—I am just compiling some SoundScan numbers, getting what you might call finicky, seeing as how it's a blog post and all. No backsliding on positions here. (I did go to Sovereign, who announced she was ill and left the stage with "I am going to vomit," a condition that might have been the result of illness, "McDonald's," or some all-night partying before the big show. She seems like she'd be a riot on a full tank. Not sure about the super-duper-Eminem feel of her new song, "9 to 5." She works the grime beat structure so well. We already have, like, Americans.)
